Hi, you guys appeared after I sent out the initial call 😁

Where are the roses and whispered sighs
Where are the compliments and dreaming eyes
It doesn't matter you see
I know you love me
1980s

Thank you @CoffeeBeansGalore. 😊

Here are a couple of mine left over from the last thread.

90s
You don't have to have the solution
You've got to understand the problem

80s
Wish I had my radio
I’d tune in to some friendly voices

And a daft variation on a song that cropped up at the end of the last thread

Long ago, outside a chip shop in Walthamstow.

Hello @SingingBabooshkaBadly. Sorry, don't know. I presume the last one is a parody if Angelo?

*of 🙄

UB40 - Don't Break My Heart?

@SimplySteveRedux Hello 🤗. Yes, correct, UB40 👍

I'm tired of telling the story
Tired of telling it your way

80s

You won't cry for my absence, I know
You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?

90s

One more 90s from me,

Looking for some education
Made my way into the night
All that bullshit, conversation
Baby can't you read the signs?

I love this song

@CoffeeBeansGalore - 👋🏼thank you for the new thread!

@SimplySteveRedux - that's the wonderful George Michael with Fast Love...

I love this song too.. that whole album in fact.

Yes. Yes, it is. Although I Just Want You To Love Me and JTAC are equal favourites, IJWYTLM destroyed me during my childhood and still does. Talented man, on a par with Mercury for me.

Thanks Coffee for the thread

Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night

70's

@NeedToKnow101 You're welcome 😊

Fleamaker, blinded by the light? Possibly Springsteen

But as for the you don't have to have the solution....it's driving me nuts . I can't even decide if it's female vocal or a Manchester band !

@SingingBabooshkaBadly
I remember that parody of Angelo

It's goes along the lines of 'running away together , running away in leather Anne and Joe ....

Joe is a biker in the story...

No idea who did it though

After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to

70s

Yes @midgebabe Blinded by the Light
It was Mannfred Mann but written by Springsteen? He has a connection somewhere!

I love this song

Fast Love - George Michael

The Heart song from the previous thread was All I wanna do and it was released in 1990.

Ah didn't see that someone had already got George Michael.

No one got this from the previous thread though:

There's a rumour, goin' round the town
That you don't want me around

'70s

Thanks for the new thread, coffee. Can't believe we filled up the last one.

I don't see to know any of the offerings on here, so instead I'll give you

All alone ain't no fun so you're looking for the thrill

Bless you and bless me
Bless the bees
And the birds

'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash
Is always Mister Right

Easy 80s, all
